Adoption Donations and In Memory Donations, versus General Fund Donations
Adoption Donation:
When you adopt a dog, you will make an adoption donation to that specific breed. You can also donate to a specific breed at any time (in memory of a dog, in honor of a friend or family member, or just to support a breed of dog you love).
​
Adoption donations go towards dog-related expenses, including the initial intake vet visit, spay/neuter, microchip, vaccines, other medical needs, and/or training.
​
General Fund Donation:
​
SPDR’s General (Operational) Fund provides the money to support the rescue of ALL breeds.
General fund donations go towards services that include a 24×7 message line, public educational booths, our website, training materials, printing, and postage.
